“This was my first time getting a cat sitter through Rover and it was an experience that I would highly recommend. I was so happy that I chose Anwar to care for my older cat for 10 days. My cat requires daily meds and some extra care and Anwar tended to all of his needs in professional and caring manner. I will definitely book with Anwar in the future.”

“Elias and family were so great! They sent so many photos and messages updating us on how our Comet was doing. We just moved to this town and will for sure be using them again!”

“Sam and her family did a wonderful job caring for my dog while I was away. They made him feel secure and welcome; he enjoyed his stay there. Sam sent plenty of updates which I appreciated. I will definitely uses Sam’s services again and highly recommend her.”


“Lauren was awesome. She took care of my rescue Rambo while I was away with my family and he loved his stay. Upon meeting her she clearly showed her professionalism from beginning to end. I could tell she has a sincere passion for dogs. She was very responsive through text message and I felt very comfortable and confident leaving him with her. I would most definitely recommend Lauren as a sitter to anybody.”

“Megan is great. She’s very responsive and made the whole process extremely easy. She gave text and picture updates so we never worried how our Chase was doing. After we picked him up, he was exhausted the rest of the day from all the fun he had with the other dogs. We could tell he really enjoyed his time there. We’re so happy we found someone we trust with our dog. Thank you so much!”
“Kyla took care of Leo on short notice and kept in touch with updates while we were away. Leo seemed very happy and relaxed the whole time. We really appreciated her communication and care!”

“Sujata & Sandeep were really great to meet. Sent regular updates with pics during Cody’s stay with them. Neo & Cody bonded very well on our greet and meet session prior to boarding him. Cody loved playing in their back yard and was coaxing Neo to join along. Cody felt at home. Planning to use their services soon. Thank you guys!!!”

“Whitney and Michael were lifesavers. They took Sketch in at the last minute and were kind and patient when we ran late picking him up. He was happy and calm after his stay with them. We are so appreciative for their wonderful care of our pup.”


“Namrata is great in taking care of my Bichon. She sent me picture every day and updates me on my dog's status. My dog usually does not eat at stranger's place, but at her house, she ate everything and slept well. My dog was able to cuddle with them and play with them everyday. I feel that my dog had a vacation while I was one vacation. Namrata is the person to go to for dog sit while I am away. Thanks for the great service.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Ivelisse! She took such amazing care of Omen while I was away. She was kind, patient, and genuinely loved animals. She was so attentive to his needs, gave him lots of love and playtime, and even went out of her way to feed him when he ran out of food, something I truly appreciated. I felt completely at peace knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and caring with pets!”

“Opal was really well cared for by Tao. Tao's own dog, Riley, has just the right amount of energy to be a superb companion for Opal. Tao updated us of Opal's activities with fun pictures and videos. All the time, we felt that Opal was in good hands.”

“Subangi was EXCEPTIONAL with our little Simba. Anyone with a pet knows the stress of finding someone you can truly trust, and we felt so lucky to have found them on Rover. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and messages about Simba’s eating, sleeping, and how he was doing. She was patient, caring, and made sure Simba ate his meals and got all the attention he needed. Her kids were amazing with him too — giving him so much attention and treating him like their own pet. They are everything we could ask for in a sitter, and we are so thankful for the love and care they gave Simba.”

“Bhali and her family took care of our dog for her first night away from home. She did so well and had such a great time. Bhali provided such a warm and loving home away from home! We’ll definitely come back!”

“Catherine was extremely attentive and caring for our Mabel! She came back super excited and very well-cared for. Catherine is a great choice, especially if your dog tends to be more comfortable in a setting without other dogs!”


“Chandar was absolutely fantastic. This was our first experience leaving our dog, and Chandar did everything we asked plus more. He gave us updates twice a day and photos of our dog throughout the day. From the photos and the feedback from Chandar, you know that your dog feels at home, calm and cared for. Our dog ate, slept well and got walked twice a day. Chandar went above and beyond in every element possible. Thanks Chandar we look forward to traveling again in the future with a stay again with you.”

About: Hello thank you for your interest. I am an animal lover with many years of experience. I have cared for a variety of animals of all sizes. I have experience with administering medication. I work full time from home which allows me to have pets stay with me and they are not left alone. I am a responsible person who takes anything I commit to very serious. Your pet will be cared for and be given lots of love. My references are reputable and all my clients love me! **Full transparency I have a 3 year old rescue dog who gets along with all types of dogs and loves the company. If you would rather my dog not be present when I'm caring for your pup I can make arrangements for him to go to Grandma's** I work from home full time and I only take one family at a time up to 3 dogs. So I will only be caring for your pets. Your pets will be taken outside every hour they will have as many walks you prefer, but it's usually 3 walks a day depending on age, health, etc
About: I love dogs. They are the best. I have raised two dogs who have since passed and have fostered dogs of all sizes, ages and special conditions. I enjoy spoiling dogs with all the love and attention. I work from home, I am always in the house for the most part. I encourage walks and fetch and any other activity the dog may require. I give dogs free rein of the house. It’s dog friendly. I have a fenced yard and crates if they need to be crated. I can administer medicine or anything else they may need dietary wise.
About: I’ve volunteered at Marty’s Place Senior Dog Sanctuary as well as SAVE Pet Shelter through my corporate volunteer opportunities. Additionally, my dog is incredibly stubborn and picky so I’m confident that your pet is much more well behaved. All of Yuki’s meals are prepped daily with an assortment of protein options and fresh vegetables to accommodate nutritional needs. I work a full time job, so my schedule will be a bit more limited. I am available most evenings 7pm and later and select weekends. The neighborhood I live in is very walkable and safe. Additionally, I have no concerns taking your dog to the park or other outdoor options to ensure they get the enrichment they need.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Lawrence is $57

Megan and Jay took wonderful care of my three dogs. All my anxiety and trepidation that I had felt when booking their stay quickly turned into calm and confidence when I met Megan and Jay , chatted with them and saw their wonderful space setup. The communication from Megan was terrific and seemingly always came just as I started to wonder how my little one’s were getting along . I would recommend them .

Macauley was absolutely the best! Our pet was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for with her. It was clear from the moment we met that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-loved pet, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their furry family member!

I highly recommend Darin and McKenna as pet sitter! Our two dogs just spent a week at their place, and it truly felt like they were on their own luxury vacation. From the start, Darin and McKenna were incredibly attentive to every detail and specific need our pups had. They didn’t just "watch" our dogs; they genuinely befriended them and invested a lot of personalized time and affection into making them feel at home. What impressed us most was their dedication during a particularly tough week of heavy snow. Despite the weather challenges, they remained completely unfazed and stayed "up to the task," ensuring our dogs were safe, pampered, and happy throughout the storms. If you are looking for sitters who are responsible, caring, and go the extra mile, Darin and McKenna are the best choice. Our dogs can’t wait to go back!

On a last minute request, Jhonny took care of both my dog and my mom’s dog. He did not require a meet and greet which was extremely helpful as we were kind of in a bind. Ultimately, Jhonny came across as genuinely caring about the animals, and we couldn’t be happier with how our pups came home. It was like they never left. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing experience with Andrea! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog, and it was clear from the start that he felt comfortable and happy with her. She and her family treated him like he was truly part of the crew, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent pictures throughout the day, and in every single one he looked relaxed, loved, and having a great time. I couldn't have asked for better care. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in the area and can't wait to have my dog stay with her again! Thanks, Andrea!!! 🫶
We are SO happy that we found Abby to watch our sweet senior fur baby over a long weekend. Abby was very attentive to our instructions and sent lots of updates every day, which really put us at ease leaving our dog with a new person. Our dog can be a bit timid but she warmed right up to Abby right away — dogs really are an excellent judge of character! Abby was also very flexible when we were facing some unexpected flight delays coming back to town. I highly recommend her and we are looking forward to rebooking with her!

Lauren did a wonderful job with Kobe. He was a rescue as has some social problems. She took such great care of him. She was nice enough to watch him at our house which was a lot to ask of her especially since we needed her for 10 hours. I would recommend Lauren highly and I know if ever I need her again I would hire her. Thanks Lauren for your help.

There are 2,002 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lawrence. About 89% of Lawrence sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
